Description

    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
  • 1. Field of the Invention
  • The skin surface of mammals is constructed to repel most molecules. The skin acts as a barrier to protect the interior of a mammal. Topical applications have been developed whereby various molecules are absorbed through the skin. In addition to topical applications, transdermal drug delivery has become an increasingly popular method for, among other reasons, high levels of patient compliance. There still exists a difficulty in transport of molecules through the various epidermal membranes in order to effectuate drug absorption through the skin. One method is to provide a carrier that assists in the transport of micron, sub-micron and nano sized particles through the layers of the epidermis. Safe and reproducible drug delivery can be achieved with deformable and stable nano-sized carriers. The nano-sized carriers encompass materials that to some degree deform the various pores in the skin allowing for the transport of materials through and contrary to the skins natural barrier configuration.
  • Although hydrocortisone products are known for topical use, they typically are not used in shampoo formulations.

  • In a preferred embodiment, when formulated as a shampoo, a base is prepared starting with acrylate crosspolymer-4 in water. Although many materials are suitable and known for shampoo formulation in general and particularly for a formulation with a desired viscosity, the selected acrylate crosspolymer-4 is selected based on the characteristics of imparting a desired viscosity and compatibly with the nanotechnology delivery components. This particular component in the above-stated range is particular for compatibility for both the active materials of hydrocortisone and resveratrol.
  • A preferred acrylate crosspolymer-4 is Carbopol aqua SF-2 polymer (available from Lubrizol, Wickcliffe, Ohio). Additionally, the initial base is prepared with panthenol, caffeine and tetrasodium EDTA.

  • The present invention has discovered the enhanced nanotechnological delivery of a hydrocortisone-resveratrol composition based on the discovered base formulation and synergistic ratio of hydrocortisone:resveratrol composition. The result will provide enhanced absorption therapy over known compositions.
  • In one embodiment, the nanotechnolgical delivery system of the present invention is prepared as any of a cream, lotion, ointment, or gel. The cream will utilize the advantageous novel ratio of hydrocortisone, resveratrol, lecithin, and glycerin to deliver the actives in the novel nanotechnological delivery system discovered and disclosed herein.
  • In one embodiment, it has further been discovered that hydrocortisone formulated according to the present invention, while omitting resveratrol maintains an acceptable level of efficacy for delivery though the skin.
  • While the invention has been described in its preferred form or embodiment with some degree of particularity, it is understood that this description has been given only by way of example and that numerous changes in the details of construction, fabrication, and use, including the combination and arrangement of parts, may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
